Hello, I am searching for the variety of Crepe Myrtle that appeared on the Dream Garden Series 1 (the last episode?) in Brisbane. As i have found there are several varieties of crepe myrtle let alone only the white varieties. I prefer the greener leaf and large "popcorn like" white flowers. The variety on the show made a dreamy display and have always wondered of the variety. PS I loved the Show.
Happy Gardenisting everyone x Natalie

I was really impressed with that planting of crepe myrtles too Natalie! Don’t know which variety they used but have planted some “Natchez” – chose them for mildew resistance and their white flower – after last week’s blog have been out smelling their perfume – had never realised they had such a light sweet scent! They are looking lovely in flower and the bees are all over them. They are growing in clay soils and withstanding hot summers. Good luck with whichever you select -I think they are worth growing .
Thankyou Irene, I will keep an eye out for the Natchez variety. I am glad to hear you are enjoying them and having success in clay and over a hot summer. I am in the Perth hills, gravel soils, we have had a long hot summer so I think they will be a good choice. Thanks again for your reply, Kindly Natalie
